What are enzymes?

• Enzymes are biological catalysts that speeds up chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy.

• Enzymes are special pockets that have an active site.

• Enzymes are biological catalysts that increase the activation energy needed for a reaction.

• Enzymes are lipids that speed up chemical reactions by increasing the activation energy.
